SMOTOUMSHtng DENTAL FLOSS A (ml Toothpaste SECTION 2-PAGE 2 - PLAIN DEALER - FRIDAY, AUGUST 2t. 1«77 moonriODoeonririnnnnnnii nnnrr r 1 Twice Told Tales | Soooooooooocooooocooooooooooeooooeeocpcioocq > FIFTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of August 25, 1927) With a court room crowded with people. State's Attorney A. Pouse exploded a bomb Monday morning when he asked for a continuance in the various liquor and slot machines violation cases set for hearing that day before Judge Charles Allen. State's Attorney Pouse stated his reason to the court and the cases were continued until Aug. 31. Special investigators from the McWeeney Investigating agencies employed by the state's attorney were unable to testify and for that reason the cases were v continued. Judge Allen stated that although a number of pleas of guilty were entered on the books the court would sooner have evidence presented in each case before sentence was passed. A meeting of the Fox River Community Protective association was held in the city hall Aug. 21, at which time all who were interested in the Fox River dam location were urged to be present. The Mathews- Tonyan company has been granted the contract for the repair work on the old dam which is situated about three miles south of McHenry, for which $10,000 has been ap­ propriated by the Mate. The gates will be placed on the locks at either side of the dam and holes in the main structure will be temporarily repaired. Opposition to the proposed construction of another dam across Fox river will probably reach its climax at the meeting of the Fox Valley mayors on next Sunday. FORTY YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of August 26, 1937) There has been considerable perturbment among residents in this region over the fact that the Chicago & North Western Railway would discontinue trains Nos. 622 and 681 after Sept. 24. Commuters to Chicago are eager that the service of these two trains be continued during the winter months as it has been during the summer. This is as it should be, and the North Western is anxious and eager to serve the region to its best ability. But this fact must ' not be overlooked, it costs money to operate a train and it must have sufficient revenue passengers to justify the ex­ pense of operation. So, if our commuters desire these trains to be contineud they must patronize them. The railroad can't afford to operate the trains the year around Just for the revenue derived during the summer months; it costs the same to operate a train in winter as in the summer, sometimes more, due to in­ clement weather conditions. Effective Aug. 25,1937, notice is hereby given by the City Council of McHenry, that all music, mechanical or other­ wise, must cease to operate between the hours of 1 a.m. and 7 a.m. on week days and 2 a.m. and 12 o'clock noon on Sundays. Virgil Ash of Deerfield, Wis., was taken to Woodstock by Deputy Sheriff Harold Hobbs of McHenry when he was taken into custody near Terra Cotta on a charge of larceny of gasoline from a filling station. Ash, who stopped at the Farm House Tavern, operated by A. Budler of McHenry, for gasoline, had seven gallons put into his car and then speeded away without paying for it. TWENTY-FIVE YEARS AGO (Taken from the files of Sep­ tember 4, 1952) Various taxing bodies were the recipients of a total of $979,600 distributed this past week, according to J.G. Stevens, county treasurer. Of this figure, $692,875 goes to schools, that sum being 72 per cent of this second distribution. High schools will receive $249,450, consolidated units, $153,250 and school districts, $290,175. The third and final distribution will be made in November.

A preliminary hearing was held in county court before Judge Henry L. Cowlin last Thursday on a petiiton for annexation to the village of Fox River Grove of the subdivision known as Venetian Gardens. Fox River Grove, at present, is the largest village in the county. The annexation of Venetian Gardens wtftild swell the present population con­ siderably. TEN YEARS AGO (Taken from the flies of August 31, 1967) To recognize Mrs. Mary Longo's many years as executive director of the Chicago Club for Ccippled Children's camp, Dr. Robert Ort; Kiwanis president. travelled to Chicago to present this outstanding resident with a citizenship award. Through Mrs. Jx>ng's efforts and her pleasing personality, the camp has attained an enviable success and assisted many children toward a brighter future. Mrs. Longo has also taught for many years in the public school system of Park Ridge. Burglars broke a large show window on the west side of Sunnyside Dodge, 4810 W. Rt. 120, McHenry, sometime in the early hours of Wednesday morning and took a substantial amount of cash and several thousands of dollars in cash. In addition to breaking the win­ dow, they also broke into the office desk and stole a cash box. The cash was undetermined, but It was disclosed that the amount might reach as high as $400 or $500. Northern Pump farms of McHenry won several class championships as 147 well groomed Herefords met in competition for top awards in the Illinois State fair breeding cattle exhibition. Class winners included a two-year-old bull, a summer yearling heifer, a senior hel(er calf, a pair of yearlings and a pair of calves.
